COSTA RICA HOME OF “THE 2011 WORLD RAFTING CHAMPIONSHIP”
More than 35 countries will meet at the world famous Rio Pacuare, where the “World Rafting Championship” will take place from October 05 -10, 2011.
The announcement was made by the International Rafting Federation, last week when our country was chosen above other nations like Italy and Australia.
The Costa Rica Tourism minister mentioned that “This international high profile competition places Costa Rica in a great position showing the rest of the world its beautiful flora and fauna”
The competition will take place in two sections of the Pacuare River near the Turrialba area: a first segment of 12.5 miles from Siquirres to Tres Equis where the river difficulty reaches professional levels and then another segment of about half a mile long near the town of San Joaquin.
The athletes will compete in four disciplines: time trial, head to head, slalom and down river. Each event will be evaluated by 12 international and 8 local judges certified by the IRF.
This is the second time that Costa Rica is chosen as headquarters for this world class competition; the first time that the country was selected was back in 1998 a year after the foundation of the International Rafting Federation and since then the event takes place every 4 years been already hosted by countries like the US back in 2001, Czech Republic in 2003, Ecuador in 2005 South Korea in 2007 and Bosnia in 2009.
According to the ICT (Costa Rican Tourism Board) more than 70% of all the foreign visitors that arrived in 2009, practiced some sort of adventure activity such canopy, rafting, surfing, and diving among others.
